Our Organic Cheeses
For a naturally wider choice
Milk from organic farms that respect the environment and animal welfare, a certified supply chain at every stage, and production that follows the natural cycles. This is how our organic cheeses are made: pecorino, canestrato, stretched-curd cheeses, and ricotta — crafted for those who prioritize quality, authenticity, and safety, guaranteed by strict supply chain certifications.
Pecorino and Canestrato Cheeses
Fresh or aged, plain or enriched with flavors from our tradition. All of them made with fresh milk of Sicilian origin only.
Canestrato cheese with fruit
From Sicilian mastery comes an original product, the canestrato cheese with fruit. Enjoy it also as a dessert and accompany it with a fortified wine: its sweet and fruity flavor will conquer the palate and its colors will cheer the sight. From the slopes of Etna quality, novelty and creativity.
Stretched Curd Cheeses
Provola, provoletta, stretched curd cheeses, waxed rind – all of them made from our milk with a 100% Sicilian short supply chain.
Ricotta Cheese
Our ricotta production can boast a 100% Sicilian short supply chain. We process it with artisanal methods to obtain products with an extremely wide variety of flavors.
